Why does familysearch post links to pay sites when there are free images available, do they get some kick backs. <br />Example.<br />https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MKYT-QX7<br />this is Oscar Norden, in Hudson, New Jersey in 1910 Census. They refer to Ancestry as the image but there are free images available at archives.com<br />http://archive.org/stream/13thcensus1910po894unit#page/n224/mode/1up go to image 225.Sven-Ovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12455740088638349985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1527613590529958801.post-55908496882535781142012-04-03T06:05:23.808-07:002012-04-03T06:05:23.808-07:00I found the family doing a search for the wife, Ma...I found the family doing a search for the wife, Mary. This is the link I would use for a Family Tree source, as it will always be free, unlike Ancestry.com.<br />https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MNCY-ZGXAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01572739124200052085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1527613590529958801.post-28875688573569862772012-04-02T06:20:47.682-07:002012-04-02T06:20:47.682-07:00I totally agree with your comments here.

The other problem I have with Family Search is the fact that the data entered is fairly minimal even though the record it was taken from is complete; a census record that when entered into Family Search only has one name when the record will have a complete family. I don&#39;t understand why the person entering the record doesn&#39;t do a complete job, very frustrating. You need a subscription to Ancestery, Fold3 and Archives to get all the records and not many of us can afford one much less all three. Oh and there is the Newspaper Archives too that is needed. It gets to be an expensive business to do genealogy.Rochester Musingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12691166117035061907noreply@blogger.com
